  1. 2. is a form of Gene interaction in which both alleles of a gene at a locus are partially expressed, often resulting in an intermediate or different phenotype.
  2. 5. is one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
  3. 6. is a form of a punnet square in which two traits are being determined.
  4. 10. is having inherited the same alleles of a genomic marker from each biological parent.
  5. 11. is the process by which the genome's DNA is copied in cells.
  6. 13. is a permanent change in hereditary material involving either a change in the position of the genes on the chromosomes or a basic change in the chemical structure of a gene.
  7. 14. are the deliberate breeding of two different individuals that results in offspring that carry part of the genetic material of each parent.
  8. 15. are a distinguishing quality or characteristic, typically one belonging to a person.

  1. 1. is a trait that is expressed only when genotype is homozygous but both alleles are lowercase (not dominant).
  2. 3. is the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism.
  3. 4. are tables in which all of the possible outcomes for a genetic cross between two individuals with known genotypes are given.
  4. 7. an inheritance in which one of the alleles in a trait are dominant while the other allele is recessive.
  5. 8. is a type of inheritance in which two alleles of the same gene are expressed separately to yield different traits in an individual.
  6. 9. is a type of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in gametes.
  7. 12. is the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them, producing two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division.
